Three Tables Oahu
Three Tables
Dive Site: Three Tables
Depth: 20-45ft
Visibility: 50-100 feet
Level: Intermediate - Advanced
Sea Life: Whitetip Reef Sharks, Eagle Rays, Turtles, Octopus, Moray Eels, Parrot Fish
Three Tables is named for a trio of flat rocks running perpendicular to shore, which break the surface, then max out in 40 to 50 feet. Lava tubes are on the right side of the tables and a nice wall to the left, with interesting boulders and some coral. The substrata are mostly devoid of coral, as heavy winter surf has pounded the formations clean and smooth. Occasional sightings of sharks, rays and turtles spice up the dive, but tropicals, octopus, eels and parrotfish are the regular attraction. Adjacent to Three Tables is a site that's okay during the day, but best experienced at night, Snaggles from a small cove in back of the fire department. After a 20-yard snorkel along the wall, drop to 25 feet and follow the wall for about 300 yards. There are several lava tubes and arches, which are good spots for lobster. Four to five foot long morays live here as well as several parrotfish. Showers and rest room facilities are available right at this site.

We had a great dive - calm water, no crowds (arrived at 8:30 am), saw
turtles, eels, lots of fish, shrimp. Water temp 81 degrees. We started left and
followed current; it was a good hard swim coming back though so plan for that.
